Chapter 6: The First Encounter
Governor Zhang forcibly endured his fear and asked himself not to tremble, and in the brown carriage with the red wolf head totem flag, sitting was Yuan Jinpei, the commander-in-chief of the Tianwei Division.
Da Da is getting closer and closer to the rhythmic sound of horses' hooves, as if every time he steps on his heart, the hair on his body trembles, and people are even more nervous when they hear it.
The carriage stopped in front of several adults, and Governor Zhang hurriedly led the officials to take a step forward and saluted: "The lower officials pay a visit to Lord Yuan to Zhang Zeyi, the prefect of Gecheng." ”
Listening to the somewhat vague greetings of these officials, Yuan Jinpei hooked the corners of his mouth and said slowly: "You are exempt from courtesy, and you are tired to lead the way to the Prince's Mansion." ”
When he spoke, Yuan Jinpei didn't get out of the carriage or even show his face, such a wanton and reckless attitude, no one in the officials present who were extremely disciplined felt strange, which shows what kind of reputation Ping Yen Jinpei has.
The group walked towards the Prince's Mansion.
On the way there, Governor Zhang kept wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead, he couldn't mess with the Yuan Master of the Tianwei Division, and the old ancestor who had just woken up couldn't be recruited either, how could he do such a thing during his tenure! In the morning, I asked my subordinates to pass the news, and I don't know if Ning Lianghou received it.
"Lord Yuan, the Prince's Mansion has arrived." Governor Zhang arched his hand and said, thought about it and added: "Marquis Ning Liang is in the mansion." ”
The sedan curtain was lifted, Yuan Jinpei stepped down from the carriage, dressed in a black brocade dress embroidered with dark lines, looking at the appearance of Yushu Linfeng, young talent, combined with rumors, it is a smiling tiger, such a heavenly posture, but there is no mercy in moving!
Governor Zhang hurriedly retracted his gaze, and told himself that he should not try to bribe and please this Yuan, he would only ask for his own hardships due to the other party's uncertain temperament.
Yuan Jinpei got out of the car, and the subordinates next to him stepped forward to knock on the door with a very good eye, and just raised his hand before touching the door panel, the door opened with a creak, and the old housekeeper walked out of it, and was startled when he saw the battle at the door.
In the end, the age is here, and it can be regarded as having experienced some storms, thinking of the instructions of the ancestors, there is no mountain dew on his face, he bends down and salutes, and then said loudly: "The ancestors invite all distinguished guests into the house." ”
Governor Zhang knew that Yuan Jinpei was looking for Ning Lianghou as a messenger to discuss important matters, and he didn't want to get involved in the fight between the two Hades, so he took this opportunity to retire.
Yuan Jinpei motioned for his subordinates to wait outside the door, and followed the housekeeper to the reception hall leisurely with a folding fan in his hand, Gu Qingchu was sitting on the main seat, with a white veil on his face, and a beaded curtain in the middle, he couldn't see his face clearly from the outside, and he could vaguely see someone sitting there.
"In the Commander-in-Chief of the Lower Heavenly Health Division, Yuan Jinpei, I have seen Ning Lianghou."
Yuan Jinpei and Gu Qingchu's official positions are of the same rank, Gu Qingchu's seniority is placed there, and Yuan Jinpei should salute.
"Lord Yuan is polite, please sit down quickly, and the jade bracelet will serve tea." Gu Qingchu commanded.
Yuan Jinpei sat down, looked at the direction of the bead curtain with a slight scrutiny, and listened to the soft voice of Wu Nong, Marquis of Ningliang, like a girl in her twenties, sleeping for thirty years without changing her voice.
It is rumored that Ning Lianghou, who woke up, was beautiful and immortal, but Yuan Jinpei didn't believe it, and after a certain period of time, his appearance and voice were destroyed, and the skin on his whole body festered. I don't think it will be much better to come to Ning Lianghou.
At the moment, Ning Lianghou's words broke Yuan Jinpei's previous speculation, and now he is a little curious about Ning Lianghou's appearance.
"Marquis Ning Liang must have guessed the reason why I came to visit today." Yuan Jinpei didn't go around the bend, and directly picked up a layer of window paper.
Hearing a woman's chuckle from behind the bead curtain, Yuan Jinpei turned the jade wrench of his thumb, and the ink in his eyes was dark.
"Don't hide it from Lord Yuan, Ben Hou has only woken up for more than ten days, and in the past thirty years, many things are not clear, if you guess, you may not be able to guess." Gu Qingchu pretended to be stupid and replied, now she doesn't know Yuan Jinpei's old background, so she still has to be soft.
The other party came too quickly, and she didn't have time to do anything more.
"I came to pass on the oracle to Ning Lianghou on behalf of the current saint, and the saint ordered that Ning Lianghou had just recovered from a serious illness, so he didn't have to bow and listen to the order, and he should talk to the monarch and ministers in private."
Yuan Jinpei kept staring at the bead curtain while speaking, Gu Qingchu, who was sitting in the back, sat motionless and sat very firmly when he heard the two words of the oracle, and when others heard Yuan Jinpei say the two words of the oracle, he had already knelt down and accepted the order in a panic.
This Ning Lianghou is really as unruly as rumored.
"Thank you for your compassion." Gu Qingchu replied in a slightly moved tone.
Although it was the first time they met, Yuan Jinpei clearly felt that there was absolutely no trace of emotion on his face behind the veil.
The emperor's dictation was very simple, he directly talked about the affairs of the Nanban, hoping that Gu Qingchu could adjust his body as soon as possible to worry about the country, and then praised many more sentences, and the dictation ended.
Gu Qingchu didn't have any joy of being praised when she heard this, and the next few words of praise came out of Yuan Jinpei's mouth, she always felt like she was a death row prisoner who was sentenced......
Yuan Jinpei is not suitable for boasting.
Gu Qingchu, who saw Yuan Jinpei for the first time, thought so.
After finishing the business, Yuan Jinpei led the topic to Gu Qing's junior high school poison. Asking with concern whether Gu Qingchu's toxins had been cleared, Gu Qingchu replied that he didn't know what was going on, so he suddenly woke up, and then his body gradually improved.
The conversation between the two of them is full of politeness and mutual temptation.
"Don't disturb Ning Lianghou to rest, and I'll come to the door tomorrow to talk specifically about Nanban's use of drugs." Qingzhou got the poison used by the Nanban, and no one in the dozens of doctors in the Tai Hospital in Qingzhou could solve it, and there were many plants unique to the Nanban in the poison, and the Xia Dynasty knew very little about it.
The bottles containing poison were sent from Qingzhou as soon as Yuan Jinpei left Shengjing, and arrived in Chaoge City tomorrow.
"Ning Lianghou is physically inconvenient, so there is no need to send him off." If the officials in Shengjing saw Yuan Jinpei's attitude, they would definitely widen their eyes, and the Living Yama King really restrained his temper too much in front of Ning Lianghou.
"Okay, the housekeeper will send Master Yuan for me." Gu Qingchu received this kindness, although she didn't plan to get up originally.
After sending Yuan Jinpei away, Gu Qingchu took off his veil and returned to the couch in the bedroom to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.
"Miss, Lord Yuan and his entourage have settled in the nearby Mao'er Lane." The jade bracelet came in from outside and reported in a low voice.
Gu Qingchu slowly opened his eyes, his expression was thoughtful, Yuan Jinpei was very deep in the city, and he was polite to her, and he couldn't tell what was bad in his heart. She wasn't sure if the other party really came for the Nanban affair or if there was another purpose.
This kind of thing of conveying the oracle is to let the commander-in-chief of the Tianwei Division convey it, and it is simply overkill to say a disrespectful word, maybe Yuan Jinpei has other errands.
Now she has just woken up, and there are too few people around her.
"Jade Bracelet, prepare a set of civilian clothes for me, I'm going out." Gu Qingchu got up, his body has almost recovered these days, and it is time to go out.
